Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method and system to replenish lithium-ion battery capacity that is lost due to side reactions over the battery's lifetime and to store excess capacity.
  • the capacity of a lithium-ion battery may decrease over its lifetime due to a loss of the active material and/or consumption of charge via side reactions. Efforts have been made to decrease the loss of capacity via the discovery of improved materials.
  • Rechargeable lithium-ion batteries may be an attractive energy storage system for portable electronics and hybrid-electric vehicles because of their high energy density and rate capability. Such batteries, however, may experience degradation, which may limit their useful life.
  • rechargeable lithium-ion batteries may experience a decrease in useable capacity (that is, "capacity fade") and/or an increase in the internal resistance of the battery (that is, “power fade”).
  • the capacity fade may result from degradation or loss of the active material that serves as a host to the lithium ions in the working electrodes of the battery, or from loss of capacity due to side reactions at one or both of the working electrodes.
  • the Meissner reference refers to ionic isolation and electronic isolation to isolate an auxiliary electrode from the working electrodes. According to the Meissner reference, ionic isolation involves an orientation of the battery in which the lithium-ion containing electrolyte contacts the two working electrodes, but not the auxiliary electrode. The auxiliary lithium electrode is presumably always in electronic contact with one of the working electrodes, but replenishment of lithium to the depleted working electrode does not occur until the cell is reoriented such that the electrolyte is in contact with both the working electrode and the auxiliary electrode.
  • the porous separator could act as a wick to transport the electrolyte to the region of the separator that contacts the auxiliary electrode. Even residual electrolyte in the pores of this region of the separator would allow transport of lithium from the auxiliary electrode to the working electrode. Lithium transfer would continue until the potentials of the working and auxiliary electrodes equilibrated. Excessive lithium transfer beyond the point of capacity balance between the two working electrodes would result in reduction of the cell's capacity.
  • Such lithium deposition may pose a safety risk and/or degrade the cell because the lithium metal reacts rapidly and exothermically with the organic solvent used in the electrolyte.
  • the cell design referred to by the Meissner reference would require additional electrode and separator material that is unutilized. Moreover, lithium transport between the two working electrodes of the cell would not be possible if the orientation of the cell were such that the two working electrodes are not in ionic contact. Indeed, even if the above-discussed concerns were addressed, relying upon reorientation of the battery significantly reduces the number of potential applications. For example, if battery-powered devices such as power tools are used in more than one orientation the auxiliary-electrode- working-electrode circuit could close unintentionally during the operation of the battery. Accordingly, the approach advocated by the Meissner reference is limited to applications having a fixed orientation.
  • the Meissner reference requires that the lithium auxiliary electrode be placed between the positive and negative electrodes.
  • the lithium auxiliary electrode would reduce the uniformity of the current distribution, and therefore the rate capability of the cell, when transferring lithium from one working electrode to the other.
  • the Meissner reference may also require that the auxiliary electrode be connected to a metallic jacket.
  • the present invention relates to a method and system to replenish lithium-ion battery capacity that is lost due to side reactions and/or other capacity that is lost over the battery's lifetime, and to store excess capacity, e.g., that could otherwise be detrimental to the system.
  • an exemplary embodiment and/or exemplary method of the present invention may address certain defects inherent in other prior methods for lithium compensation, and may provide certain improvements over the other prior methods.
  • lithium-ion capacity that is lost due to side reactions over the battery's lifetime is replenished using an additional lithium electrode, which serves as lithium reservoir to replace the lost charge to one or both working electrodes of the battery. Further, excess capacity may be removed and stored in the additional lithium electrode, in particular when such excess capacity poses a risk of battery degradation or a safety risk.
  • the additional lithium electrode may serve as a lithium reservoir that can be used to replace charge or remove charge from either working electrode as capacity is lost over the battery's life.
  • a circuit between the additional lithium electrode and the working electrode(s) can be closed so that the lithium may be transferred from the additional lithium electrode to the working electrode(s).
  • An arrangement may be provided to polarize the working electrode/lithium electrode pair and control the current flow direction in order to drive lithium from the working electrode to the additional lithium electrode.
  • the exemplary embodiment and/or exemplary method of the present invention uses the additionally provided lithium reservoir electrode (LRE) as a reference electrode to measure the open-circuit potential (OCP) of each working electrode thereby making known the state of charge (SOC) of each electrode. Once the state of charge (SOC) of each electrode is known, the appropriate amount of lithium can be transferred from the lithium reservoir electrode (LRE) and inserted into one or both working electrodes and vice versa.
  • LRE lithium reservoir electrode
  • OCP open-circuit potential
  • the state of charge (SOC) of each electrode is determined by measuring the full-cell potential and/or current, and applying these measurements to a model of the cell to calculate the state of charge (SOC) of each working electrode.
  • an exemplary lithium-ion cell which includes three terminals — two working terminals and a lithium reservoir electrode (LRE) terminal.
  • the working terminals include a negative electrode terminal and a positive electrode terminal.
  • the exemplary lithium-ion cell may be manufactured in any configuration, including, for example, such configurations as a spirally wound configuration and a prismatically stacked configuration.
  • uniformity of the current distribution is maintained when transferring lithium from one working electrode to the other by electronically isolating the lithium reservoir electrode (LRE) from the working electrodes such that the lithium reservoir electrode (LRE) is arranged outside of the current path between the two working electrodes.
  • the amount and rate of lithium transfer is controlled via a battery monitoring system to prevent, or at least minimize, formation of dendrites at the lithium reservoir electrode (LRE) during lithium removal from the working electrodes, or to prevent, or at least minimize an excessive transfer of lithium which may pose a safety risk and degrade the cell via lithium deposition during lithium insertion into the working electrodes.
  • the battery monitoring system may enhance battery life.

  • S is a generic reactant that may represent, for example, the solvent, anion, or a contaminant.
  • the product S " may be soluble in the electrolyte or can form a solid precipitate with the lithium cation. Because the side reaction is irreversible, the reverse reaction does not occur during discharge, and hence the charge is only partially transferred back to the positive electrode.
